The event also marked the culmination of the ‘Innings for
the Ocean Contest’, with the winners present at the event. The vibrant energy
amidst the audience who had gathered, was a fair representation of the
positivity – the event, the celebrities and the watches showcased beheld.

Kolkata, April 16,
2019: Seiko, one of the world’s most renowned watch
crafters drew attention to three special watches, at their boutiques in South
City Mall, and Camac Street, Kolkata. The event dubbed ‘An Innings for the
Ocean’ saw celebrity cricketers Andre Russel and Shubman Gill showcasing three
watches from the brand’s Save the Ocean
Collection. President and Chief Operating Officer, Seiko Watch India – Mr
Niladri Mazumder bore witness to the occasion.

The Save the Ocean Collection is a part of the Seiko
Prospex range and is committed to preserving the marine environment. A part of
the proceeds from their sales is offered to the non-profit Fabien Cousteau
Ocean Learning Centre, an institution that works to make a direct and positive
contribution to the health of our planet’s oceans. These watches come with
graduated blue dials inspired by the blue whale and offer a distinct sense of
style perfectly suited for those who want to make an environmentally friendly
statement.

Of the three watches showcased, the first is an automatic –
and a modern reincarnation of a ‘heritage watch’ affectionately referred to as
the ‘Turtle’ by Seiko fans, the second, another automatic – from the lineage of
a model known as the ‘Samurai’ and the third – a Chronograph that is powered by
light. All three watches have an extraordinary water resistance of 200 m and
are remarkably sleek for being divers’ watches with steel cases ranging from
43.5 mm to 45 mm.
As a true watch
manufacturer, Seiko is known for incorporating the latest technology alongside
its breadth of craftsmanship. This quality of watchmaking is undoubtedly
evident in the Save the Ocean watches, ranging from INR 35,500 to INR 37,500 –
a price bracket that, considering the reputability of the brand, the innovation
in technology and the green intent, is surely worth the money.
